Chapter 19 The Power of Spells
"Three Principles of Mage?" Hearing this unfamiliar term, Gothe's heart moved, and at the same time he secretly wrote down this principle in his heart.
"Ilan said it. He said Master Seda told him," Amy explained: "But he only said this one, and he didn't say the other two."
"Why is Elan telling you this?"
"In addition, since "never let others know your spells" is one of the three major rules of the mage, how can Master Seda let you Know his magic?"
Gothe frowned slightly and asked without any trace.
Hearing Gothe's question, Amy knew what Gothe meant and quickly explained: "In order to show off his status, Yilan was Master Seda's real apprentice and met with us in the restaurant. "I said it when I was showing off."
"You were not in the restaurant at that time, so you didn't hear it."
"That's true. Master Seda never told us about the three masters." "Principle, if Elayne didn't say it, how would we know this statement?"
"As for Master Seda's spell, do you still remember, when Master Seda asked Neo to test the medicine, Ni?" Ao was scared and wanted to run away
He was running to the backyard, and I happened to be there at the time. I saw with my own eyes that Master Seda just stretched out his hand and touched Neo, and Neo collapsed to the ground. "
"If that spell can take effect without physical contact, why would Master Seda do anything unnecessary? "Ami pursed her lips and said with absolute certainty.
"In this way." Gothe was thoughtful.
What Amy said was reasonable and reasonable, and he believed it in his heart.
At the same time. Thinking of the first day I came to this world, I also experienced the magic of Master Seda.
That hand that could bring him great pain makes Gothe still feel frightened when he thinks about it.
“It seems that Master Seda has at least two spells that can only take effect through contact.
So, if we really get to the last step and confront him, the first thing is to Try to avoid physical contact with him." Gao De paid attention secretly, and his thoughts began to spread.
"In addition to avoidance, is it possible to take advantage of this?"
"I know, go to bed early, we have to work when we get up tomorrow." While thinking, Gao De said softly.
Amy didn't get the response she expected from Gothe. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. In the end, she could only remain silent.
Not long after, the sound of Gothe's steady breathing after falling asleep was heard in the room.
The next day, afternoon.
After completing the preparation of the primary spider poison potion early, Gothe left the workshop and went to the business district of Hogan City for the third time.
He did not notice that in the shadow of the trees directly opposite the medicine garden gate, three pairs of eyes lit up at the same time.
The owners of the eyes are three thin but strong men.
Everyone is unkempt, with wine stains on their messy beards, greasy and tangled hair, and unwashable oil stains on their clothes
This is the physical appearance of the people at the bottom.
The three of them all have cunning and aggressive eyes, so they are obviously not good people.
After the three of them watched Gaode go away, they started talking quietly.
"Boss, is that him?" the man with the darkest skin asked.
“That’s him. I’ve asked around. The old mage from Seda Medicine Garden rarely goes out. Whether he is selling potions or buying raw materials, he lets his apprentices do it for him.
Only But the person who was in charge of this was an older apprentice, and he was recently replaced by this guy."
The man called the boss said, his voice was a bit sharp, but it didn't match the ferocious look in his eyes. Somewhat like a rooster.
“It’s a good thing, this guy looks young, so he will definitely be easier to deal with.”
"But he is a mage apprentice and can do magic." The relatively shortest man among the three hesitated, "Do we really want to take action?"
"If he is an old mage, we really have to be wary of him. , but what’s the point of worrying about such a little kid?”
“A mage apprentice at this age doesn’t have much fighting power, and can only master one or two tricks.”
“And it’s big. Probability is a non-lethal trick like the hand of the mage. The three of us have been working in the mine for so many years. How can we not be able to defeat such a little brat if we are not full of strength? "
In a 0-level spell? Among them, Mage's Hand can be said to be the most well-known and representative trick, and it is basically the spell that every mage apprentice must learn and be the first to master.
So many people know this spell even if they are not magicians.
"The third child, you are still too timid." The second child echoed Lao Dadao.
"This boy didn't bring a package with him on this trip, so he wasn't going to sell potions, but to buy raw materials for the old mage." The man called the boss said again. "I've also asked. The old mage seems to have been researching a high-level magic potion in recent years. The raw materials required are extremely precious and expensive, so this kid must have a lot of money with him."
“We were originally going to leave Hogan City and go to Bremen City to find another way to make a living. After doing this, we left directly. No matter how great the old mage was, he would definitely not be able to find us to settle the score. ”
The other two people couldn't help but nod when they heard this, thinking that it made sense.
“When will we do it?” Lao San asked again.
“We’ll take action when we get to the slums. It’s chaotic there and it will be troublesome to track down. This can delay us for a while, enough for us to leave Hogan City and ensure that no accidents occur.”
“ Good!”
Going to the Hogan City business district, the dark and dirty section of the slums is still the only way to go.
However, compared to the last two times, Gaode, who has newly mastered three 0-level spells, is undoubtedly more confident this time and no longer needs to lower his head and be cautious.
Besides, even if the slums are a mixed bag and there are many thieves and rogues, under normal circumstances, how could he, a plainly dressed civilian, encounter so many accidents in broad daylight?
But Gaode forgot one thing. The reason why accidents are called accidents is precisely because they are unexpected.
At this moment, I just walked to the intersection from an alley to the street. Because it is an alley, my vision is a little dim, and I can't see any shadows.
It was under this situation that he felt a slight chill on the back of his head and heard the rushing wind in his ears.
Sneak attack!
And it was aimed at his head.
Gothe reacted immediately, but it was too late. In a hurry, he just instinctively bent his body to lower the impact point and avoid the head, which was a vital part.
Gothe's body's instinctive reaction prevented him from having his head explode, but he was hit in the back. The strong force made Gothe groan and stagger.
Feeling the burning pain from his back, Gaode made the most correct response at the moment. Following the force, he rolled like a donkey and successfully avoided the second attack that followed. .
He stood up quickly and saw clearly the black hand that attacked him.
Three rather strong men, each holding a wooden stick in their hands, were looking at themselves with ferocious eyes - one vote is worth one vote, but the three of them were not prepared to kill anyone.
Although they are vicious, they are not extremely evil people.
Besides, he was just preparing to rob money, and he didn’t have any deep grudge against Gaode. How could he be tempted to kill people under normal circumstances?
He knocked the person unconscious with a sap, looted all the money, and ran away.
"Fortunately it's just a wooden stick." Gothe secretly rejoiced.
If the attacker had a murder weapon, he would be in danger now.
"Who are you? Why did you attack me!" Gothe asked sharply.
"Young man, your reaction is quick. Hand over your money and we will let you go!" The leading man stared at Gothe and threatened.
“It turned out to be a robbery.” Only then did Gothe understand, and he felt that since he came to this world, he had almost no contact with the outside world, how could he offend others.
However, Gaode is not prepared to spend money to avoid disaster.
Furthermore, he only has dozens of silver coins on him, and this little money will definitely not satisfy the three villains in front of him.
Thinking like this, Gaode has already raised his hand.
A ray of cold blue light burst out from his fingertips.
This ray of light was as fast as lightning, flying straight towards the leading man, leaving a crystal clear trail.
The ray appeared very suddenly and very quickly.
In addition, Gothe's rolling as a donkey did not put him far away from the three of them. The attack in this situation made it impossible for people to react.
The reason why Gothe asked about the identities of the three people was that he never expected them to answer the question.
The reason why he spoke out was just to distract the three people's attention a little and buy himself time to cast the spell.
The ray directly hit the leading man, and with a subtle ice cracking sound, a thin layer of ice instantly condensed on the leading man's skin.
He felt a chill that penetrated into his bones and severe pain, and his expression was distorted by the cold pain.
Freeze Ray!
